Answer:

Tom has to sit more towards the middle (fulcrum) while Marcie sits on the edge of the seesaw.

Explanation:

Since Tom is heavier than Marcie, he has to sit towards the middle of the seesaw while Marcie sits on the edge. This is what is going to help to distribute both weights on the seesaw.

If they both sat on the edges of the seesaw, Tom's weight is going to hit the ground fast and this will end up causing Marcie to suspend in the air, since Marcie does not have enough body weight required to match Tom's own in order for the see saw to move uniformly, up and down.

Answer:

d. sex discrimination

Explanation:

Sex discrimination is the type of discrimination when someone treats unfavorably or badly because they are from the different sex; whether if it is men to women or women to men. In this case we find that the firm only promotes men to higher positions and not women, because even though they may excel better in the workplace, the firm believes that women should focus more in the tasks from their home and find the balance between work and home. This type of thinking is very sexist because they are basically stating that the tasks from home should be handle by women and not men.
